Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Pro News Coaches, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded by Wall Street Journal alumni, offers coaching, mentoring and related services to local news organizations nationwide. As independent newsrooms shrink and disappear at an alarming rate, many communities have limited access to trusted local and regional news. We work with reporters and editors to develop research and investigative skills, expand public service coverage, and strengthen the communities they serve.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Pro News Coaches added coaching projects at ten individual newsrooms to its alumni volunteers' roster in 2025, including projects in Interlochen, Mich., and Philadelphia. PNC's volunteer work also expanded in 2025 into newsroom training. Alumni volunteers led sessions on health-care reporting, breaking-news coverage, editing, and writing skills for reporters and editors at States Newsroom, a nonprofit providing coverage from the capitals of every U.S. state. We are also now partnered with the Center for Cooperative Media and the Lenfest Institute to offer as-needed editorial services to their members.-$21,153
